Predictors of Nodal and Distant Metastatic Disease Detected by PSMA PET in Treatment-Naïve High-Risk Prostate Cancer: A Czech Multicentre Cohort Study (CZECH-PSMA)
2026년 5월 19일 업데이트: doc. MUDr. Otakar Čapoun, Ph.D., FEBU, General University Hospital, Prague
Prostate cancer is the second most common malignancy worldwide and the fifth leading cause of male cancer-related mortality.
Approximately 15% of localized cases are classified as high-risk for biochemical recurrence.
These patients frequently harbour occult metastases undetected by conventional imaging (CT and bone scintigraphy).
Consequently, PSMA PET has revolutionized primary staging and is strongly recommended by EAU guidelines.
In the Czech Republic, a transition toward a "PSMA-first" pathway is evident, where molecular imaging increasingly replaces conventional modalities.
This "stage-migration" identifies a new cohort of miN1/M1 patients previously classified as having localized disease.
However, PSMA PET is a resource-demanding modality and not yet universally available.
To optimize its utility, identifying which combinations of routinely available parameters predict metastatic disease and characterizes this new cohort is essential.
Furthermore, real-world evidence regarding early oncological outcomes within this PSMA-only framework is limited.
This multicentre cohort study aims to define a multiparametric predictive model for PSMA-detected metastases and evaluate the real-world therapeutic trajectories and follow-up outcomes of this newly defined high-risk population.
Integrating clinical, biological, and molecular data, seeks to refine patient selection and provide a longitudinal perspective on the "PSMA-first" diagnostic era.

Inclusion Criteria
Male patients will be included if:
- Male patients aged ≥ 18 years with histologically confirmed prostate adenocarcinoma,
- high-risk disease defined as ISUP GG ≥ 4 and/or PSA ≥ 20 ng/ml and/or clinical stage assessed by DRE ≥ cT2c,

Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (AUC ROC) [scale 0 to 1] of multiparametric model for miN1 and/or miM1 on PSMA (prostate specific membrane antigen) PET (positron emission tomography) according to PROMISE (prostate cancer) V2 criteria.
기간: Data collected at the time of result of PSMA PET/CT imaging, approximately 1 month after.
|
This predictive model aggregates heterogeneous predictors into a single numerical probability score to determine the presence of metastasis by multivariate logistical regression.
The model will include: serum PSA (prostate specific antigen) [μg/ml] and/or PSA density [μg/ml/cc], clinical T stage [T1a/b/c, T2a/b/c, T3a/b, T4], prostate biopsy ISUP GG - International Society of Urology Pathology Grade Group [1/2/3/4/5], and the presence of a cribriform growth pattern, multiparametric MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) PI-RADS (Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System) v2.1 score [1/2/3/4/5], as well as SUVmax (maximum standardized uptake value) [g/ml] and PSMA PET total tumor volume [ml] of the primary intraprostatic lesion.
Higher scores/values indicate more aggressive disease.

The proportion of participants whose pathological stage pT and pN differs from the molecular imaging stage miT and miN.

The study also measures the impact of these integrated parameters on progression-free survival and overall survival.
Predictive accuracy is quantified through multivariable modeling to determine the additive value of molecular imaging over standard clinical parameters.

Frequency of clinical management changes based on PSMA PET/CT compared to conventional imaging
기간: From the date of initial conventional imaging to the initiation of the final treatment plan (approximately 4-12 weeks).
|
This measure assesses the proportion of participants whose treatment plan is modified following PSMA PET/CT staging relative to the strategy established by conventional imaging.
A management change is defined as a transition in clinical intent, such as moving from local curative therapy to systemic treatment due to the discovery of metastatic disease.
The study records the rate at which molecular imaging findings lead to a change in the final management decision compared to standard-of-care imaging.
|
From the date of initial conventional imaging to the initiation of the final treatment plan (approximately 4-12 weeks).
|
|
Rate of interobserver agreement between local and central expert reviews using standardized PROMISE V2 criteria
기간: From the date of initial imaging until the completion of centralized review (approximately 3 months).
|
The level of consistency between local site investigators and central expert reviewers is assessed through the comparison of PSMA PET/CT molecular staging findings.
Agreement is quantified using Cohen's kappa coefficient to evaluate the reproducibility of the PROMISE V2 criteria.

Predictive accuracy of preoperative markers for adverse pathological features at radical prostatectomy
기간: At the time of surgery (approximately 2-6 weeks post-imaging)
|
This measure assesses the ability of PSMA PET findings (SUVmax of prostate and seminal vesicles and / or total PSMA volume) and clinical parameters (PSA-D and / or cribriform pattern) to predict the presence of high-risk disease features in the final surgical specimen.
Adverse pathological features are defined as the presence of pT3 (pathological T stage 3) and final ISUP (International Society of Urological Pathology) Grade Group ≥ 4, or pelvic lymph node metastasis (pN1).
The predictive performance is reported using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), sensitivity, and specificity to quantify the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative staging compared to the gold-standard histopathology.

This outcome measure determines the proportion of participants in the oligometastatic subgroup who remain free of biochemical recurrence following primary treatment.
Biochemical recurrence is defined as the occurrence of two consecutive PSA values ≥ 0.2 ng/mL.
By aggregating these clinical, diagnostic, and oncological parameters, the study evaluates the total impact of PSMA PET/CT on the standard of care and its influence on subsequent clinical management.
